Genshin Impact: Teyvat Travel Log

But in the end, the grafted life did not survive.

The icy, blade-like wind and snow eventually obscured the moonlight...

Long, long afterward, long ago—

When the black dragon and the wind dragon fought to the death and a victor emerged,

When the humus-covered blood turned the valley, white as bone ash, red,

[The tree then remembered that it hadn't died along with the ruins of the city.]

[Its roots greedily reach for the warm blood that irrigates the earth.]

The shocked crowd leaned back in shock: "—!!｀ ˇ!"

The black dragon and the wind dragon fought to the death to determine a victor, and the rotten blood turned the valley, which was as white as bone ash, red!

The princess dreamed again of a jet-black dragon that blotted out the sun!

This is an ominous sign!

So that's what the third stone tablet meant?

When did that princess foresee the events surrounding the dragon Dulin? Did she foresee more than 2 years into the future through a dream?

******

Yingmei and Paimon looked on, somewhat dumbfounded.

Gu Jing then revealed another piece of information: "The person who left the eight stone tablets and the person who left the recorder's box are undoubtedly the same person."

"That is, the person whom this princess called 'Uku'."

"As for where Uku went afterward?"

"Does Ying remember the Frost Armored Hilichurl King that you killed this morning?"

Yingmei was shocked: "—!!!"

You mean...?

"Which Frostarmored Hilichurl King was Uku in disguise?"

Hilichurls are actually transformed humans? This really scared Yingmei, and also the people watching the live stream.

Gu Jing nodded noncommittally: "That's right, but there's no need to feel guilty. The Frost Armored Hilichurl King will reappear in 12 hours. That's how amazing the Ley Lines of Teyvat are."

"No! The point isn't whether the ley lines are miraculous or not!"

Why did humans evolve into Hilichurls?

"I don't understand!"

Yingmei had a great time opening the numerous magnificent and precious treasure chests on the snow mountain, and everyone thought that Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain was her lucky place.

But... but why did humans turn into Hilichurls?!

That's terrifying!

Looking at Yingmei, who was somewhat excited, Paimon, who was speechless with shock, and Shenhe, who was equally bewildered.

After a moment's thought, Gu Jing also recorded his answer in his diary.

[Regarding the fact that Hilichurls are descended from humans—]

When you find one cockroach in your home, there are actually a thousand more lurking in the shadows.

[I think everyone thinks this way, right?]

This idea is correct.

It's harsh; many Hilichurls now inhabit the continent of Teyvat.

Their predecessors were the Kanriyans.

Then some people might think, "Since Hilichurls are transformed humans, does that mean I was killing people before?"

How should I put this?

I don't think it's necessary to overthink it.

As mentioned earlier, monsters don't truly die; they reappear from the ley lines after a period of time.

Moreover, after becoming monsters, the vast majority of Hilichurls lose their sanity.

You don't solve His problem.

You're the one who gets hurt and suffers the consequences.

There's also a saying: "Ignorance is no excuse."

I didn't know that before.

Protecting yourself is the priority, of course.

Knowing about this, I think everyone should think about why this happened.

Why did humans evolve into Hilichurls?

To be honest...

I'm not really sure either.

On the surface, it appears to be a punishment from the forces of nature.

Some evidence seems to suggest that this is a problem of the abyss.

But they also have one thing in common.

[Earth's Ley Lines!]

Whether it's Kanriyar or the ancient kingdoms atop the Dragonspine Mountains.

They all touched the earth's ley lines.

The ley lines are fundamental to the formation of the continent of Teyvat.

[Untangling the earth's veins is no problem.]

[Trying to study or utilize ley lines usually leads to very serious problems. (Wang's)]

【Don't do these things.】

It is undoubtedly safe.

******

Upon seeing this, people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It's a bit selfish of them, but they didn't really feel anything about the fact that the Hilichurls were transformed from the Kanrias, since they weren't that familiar with them.

Which other princess could foresee such a distant future?

It must be because it borrows from the earth's veins, right?

But no matter what, people will feel a sense of shared sorrow, worrying that they might be the next one to be affected. What girl doesn't love to look pretty? If she were to become that pathetic one day, she would be miserable even if she died!

[So, let's take this snow mountain trip to a temporary close.]

I'm really looking forward to visiting Longji Snow Mountain.

After all, as far as I know—

My dear Miss Yura loves taking cold baths on snowy mountains.

I didn't get to meet Yura at Longji Snow Mountain.

[They must be avoiding me, right?]

This grudge!

I've got it!

Yura, who was patrolling Eagle Beach, blushed and snorted: "Fine, I'll write it down! Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

PS: The picture shows Yura.

Chapter Forty-Nine: The Invitation from Veteran Driver Zhongli! Is this what wear and tear looks like?

In the afternoon, the streets of Chihuyan were bustling with activity, and the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground echoed in people's ears.

Bang, bang, bang—

People looked in the direction of the sound and involuntarily opened their mouths wide. The bustling street gradually quieted down. Only the humanoid demon armor carrying a wild boar the size of a two-story building slowly moved forward, and people along the way consciously made way for it.

Upon seeing Gu Jing and the others behind the humanoid demon armor, someone stepped forward with a smile to greet them: "Oh my! Isn't this the great hero who saved our Liyue Harbor a few days ago? You truly are amazing when you finally make a move!"

Gu Jing smiled upon hearing this: "How did you know that my haul today is the Great Snow Pig King, which has been extinct for hundreds of years?"

"Hiss~ The Great Snow Pig King, which has been extinct for hundreds of years?"

"No wonder it's so amazing!"

"Incredible! Absolutely incredible!"

Those who heard the juicy gossip were all astonished, giving it a thumbs up and praising it immensely, even a street urchin who was listening to a storybook.

He said, "Put the bill on the funeral parlor," and then got up from his seat and calmly followed Gu Jing and the others.

To put it in Gu Jing's words from before his transmigration, this time he's trending on social media in Liyue Harbor once again!

******

Returning to their residence amidst the shocked and envious gazes of Master Mao and Su Erniang, the humanoid demon armor placed the Great Snow Pig King on the open ground of the courtyard. Yingmei and Paimon, who had been holding back for a long time, burst into laughter, and even Shen He couldn't help but chuckle.

Gu Jing looked at Old Zhong behind him with great interest: "There should be a gathering at 600 later. If you want to eat snow pork, let's go together."

"But you must have something else on your mind, right?"

Zhongli smiled and nodded: "There is indeed one more thing."

As he spoke, he took out an invitation from his pocket. Gu Jing took the invitation and looked at it, his gaze towards Zhong Li showing more satisfaction.

He patted him on the shoulder, smiled and nodded: "Good brother! I'll accept this invitation! I'll definitely be there!"

Zhongli smiled and said, "That's good. But I won't participate in the young people's gathering. Just cut me some hind leg meat."
